A little over a week ago you might have seen postings on your social media encouraging you to turn off or disable "Off-Facebook Activity". After doing some research on this recommendation I found it to be legitimate so I cleared my Facebook history then turned off the setting.
Facebook uses most of the information gathered to "deliver" more relevant content and ads to you. The data gathered on you isn't presently being used in a harmful manner but when working online I believe it important to protect our personal information when we can. This is one of those times.
I found some well-written step-by-step instructions for how to turn this off for both mobile devices as well as computers if you want to change your Facebook settings: https://www.ricksdailytips.com/disable-off-facebook-activity/ (Rick's Daily Tips are usually very good and you can subscribe for a Free daily email).

Happy Tuesday! The Groundhog predicts 6 more weeks of winter, BUT it is only 46 days until Spring!
